Summary

Energizer feels the call of Black Hat and seeks the back door to an MCT host.

Background

Energizer had once worked for Mitsuhama as a matrix security professional. She didn't know the extent of the corp's crimes, simply doing her job until the day a shadowrunner bricked her cyberdeck in spectacular fashion. In the days that followed, she was under severe stress; Mitsuhama was not known for accepting failure. Somewhere in that time, she underwent a SURGE and came out looking like an Energizer, a technicus subspecies in the family Leporidae, but with a strange pink hue. Just like these subspecies, she also emerged. Her powers were strange and new, but she knew the matrix well enough to use them to escape her employer. Since then, she lived on the fringes of society, shadowrunning to survive.

The Meet

Somewhere in the back of her mind, Energizer knew that no matter how far she burrowed into her corner of Seattle and Emerald City, she would never be safe. There were too many things that could go wrong. What if it turned out like in the MCT host all over again? She felt the need to dig deeper, and she found rumors of a resonance undulation - a transient resonance well that flows from one host to the next in mysterious fashion. It only ever seemed to appear in weak, old hosts that no one was using anymore, but by the time everyone figured out where it was, it had always moved somewhere else. She called Jesse Pop for more information. He told her he knew someone who could help her get there before the crowd, but they needed help with something. She was sent to an old, abandoned church building in the Redmond barrens, where she met four technomancers obsessively arranging devices and icons. They explained that there was a resonance veil on the grid here, and it was growing weaker. Their attention was fully captured merely trying to keep it afloat, and they needed her to help look for the cause.
